We had a member who joined at the age of 16. She had a regular h.s. diploma and graduated from college in two years and went to law school at 18. She didn't work out for the sorority, although not because she was immature and partied too much. She just spent so much time on her classes that she didn't have enough left for the chapter.
I don't think the age HAS to be a problem - it depends on the girl. Especially if she was home schooled she may have been more sheltered than most teenagers and is now doing the "I'm on my own and I'm going to have fun and do what my parents didn't want me to" thing that _lots_ of freshmen do, home-schooled or not.
So I think her maturity, not her age, is cause for concern. Although it's hardly unusual for a 14 or 15 year old to be less mature than an 18 year old.
